We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted strong law of large numbers for independent random variables with multidimensional indices belonging to some sector.

Letp≥1/αand1/2<α≤1.Let{X,Xn,  n≥1}be a sequence of independent and identically distributedB-valued random elements and let{ani,  1≤i≤n,  n≥1}be an array of real numbers satisfying∑i=1naniq=O(n)for someq>p.We give necessary and sufficient conditions for complete moment convergence of the form∑n=1∞n(p-v)α-2E∑i=1naniXi-εnα+v<∞,  ∀ε>0, where0<v<p.A strong law of large numbers for weighted sums of independentB-valued random elements is also obtained.

SynopsisWe provide necessary and sufficient conditions for two-parameter convergence in the strong law of large numbers for U-statistics. We also obtain weak-type (1,1) inequalities for one and two-sample U-statistics of order 2 which are, in a sense, best possible.

Let 0 < p ≤ 2, let {Xn; n ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent copies of a real-valued random variable X, and set Sn = X1 + . . . + Xn, n ≥ ­ 1. Motivated by a theorem of Mikosch 1984, this note is devoted to establishing a strong law of large numbers for the sequence {max1≤k≤n |Sk| ; n ≥ ­ 1}. More specifically, necessary and sufficient conditions are given forlimn→∞ max1≤k≤n |Sk|log n−1 = e1/p a.s.,where log x = loge max{e, x}, x ≥­ 0.

Points are independently and uniformly distributed onto the unit interval. The first n—1 points subdivide the interval into n subintervals. For 1 we find a necessary and sufficient condition on {ln } for the events [Xn belongs to the ln th largest subinterval] to occur infinitely often or finitely often with probability 1. We also determine when the weak and strong laws of large numbers hold for the length of the ln th largest subinterval. The strong law of large numbers and the central limit theorem are shown to be valid for the number of times by time n the events [Xr belongs to l r th largest subinterval] occur when these events occur infinitely often.
